I love the Mini Lou, I’m so glad I got it! I was skeptical about being able to fit anything in it, but it holds exactly what I need, with a little bit of extra space for a few more goodies. For me, my one gripe is the fact that the tassel is not detachable.
I just got mine in black with black hardware, I moved in immediately. I take public transportation and I feel safer if the bag does not draw attention. I also wanted a bag for everyday errands and if I have to meet someone for coffee or dinner, I could also carry the same bag.
I have it in dark natural. I love it! And it fits more than my YSL small wallet on chain. I can’t put my phone in the woc with all my other stuff but the mini Lou fits all my essentials + my phone
Thanks for the video, I love the size of the small bag. I haven't bought one yet due to the tassel! I'm not a fan of it. YSL finally released the mini Lou without the tassel version. I will get a few when more colors are available. Can't wait.
I loveeeee the Lou Camera bag, except this is way too small for me so I went with the medium lol. I had reservations at first as I’m a big bag girl, but was pleasantly surprised at how much the Medium Lou can fit. I just ordered a third as an early birthday gift to myself.
I was on the YSL website. I wanted to purchase this bag ,however it is no longer made with the tassel....I really love the tassel so it was a deal breaker for me.
Thanks for your review! I always wondered if I should ever get it. My main hiccup is getting in and out of the bag. I already have a tight opening with my Speedy 25.
It does seem like a good bag overall, but a few other cons for me would be that the chain strap is neither removable nor adjustable. And the non-swivel aspect would bug me! Also, if you're short, it might hang too low, especially as a shoulder bag.
I don't think it is worth the new price tag. I think the strap should be adjustable and removable for the new price tag. This bag used to be 1,000 and now it is 1450 ish I think.
Exactly my thoughts.... so sick of the greed, something gets a little popular, let’s Jack up the price 50%. It is super cute, I was on the fence at $1000, at $1500 it is an easy no for me, but I am happy for anyone that loves it and gets joy from it.
I never thought about the strap being removable and adjustable 😅 but it's a good point! Though there are a lot of bags in or above this price range that also don't have adjustable or removable straps. Certainly it depends on what's worth it to you!
@@JazzysStyle I agree!! Not that long ago a mini pochette accessiores was $350, it has more than doubled! For a little, cute, but little pouch! The Toy Loulou was $850 when I considered it.... it’s just greed greed... it is just disgusting, and $10,000 for a Chanel bag known for flaws, or the new LV’s??!! There are items I would have liked to purchase, but that won’t be happening now, and that is fine, I can admire from a far.
💖👑👑💖🎬📽🎥am very interested in this bag because i have fou d i can only wear cross body becsuse i wslk with a stick am a cancer survivor. I did buy the neverful LV .But now I know i should have got some sort of a speedy with a strap so i can wear ir cross bosy .Ohooo well you live and learn. but i really love this camera bag ❤
Fabulous review! It’s such a versatile bag and I love the tassel. Also, I don’t think anything can be done to make mod shots feel less awkward when filming lol 😂 as you know- I hate doing them! 😖🤣
Great video! I think this bag is great. I am interested in purchasing this handbag, but when I checked it out in-person, it smelled a chemically. Do you recall whether your bag had a chemical-like smell? It didn’t smell like leather.
Hi Enjoyed this review I just received this identical bag and I'm searching you tube and the internet for a way to lengthen the chain strap Any ideas? I cannot find a way to add an extension so I'm considering cutting the first chain loop then adding extenders Think this would work or do you know of a professional who might take a look at it to see? Thanks in advance if you see this and can send advice
Since the chain is not removable, I do think you'd have to alter the chain to extend it. But instead of cutting the chain loop, you might be able to use pliers to open it and close it again. I kind of demonstrate this method in this video I recently put out: ua-cam.com/video/K1PNOEbZw7k/v-deo.html I hope that helps!
I bought but returned it because it did not work for me 😭 guess I have too many important stuff that I will have to compromise if I keep it. Disappointed that the back pocket does not fit my phone 📱 it is a really pretty bag though
I'm glad you were able to realize it didn't work for you in trying to return it! It definitely isn't something like a work bag for me, but I've found it great for errands. But of course it's totally dependent on what works for you!
Nice review! I want to buy the bag now but did it go up in price??? its showing $1450 😱now! What was the price when you purchased and when? I remember you mentioned you paid $870?
It is more $1450 yes 😬 I think it's a great bag and I might really consider it at the current price, but preloved is a great option too. I ended up paying what I did though a very ridiculous bunch of circumstances 😅 including a credit, a discount off, and Cashback on the card I used to pay.
This is great that you love it and enjoyed it! I purchased mine before 2019 on sale 40% off at Saks Canada. It was new from boutique and less then 900 CAD that time. I never liked it and never enjoyed it. I finally sold it a year ago and so happy it was gone! The tassel was driving me crazy, it’s like a little kids bag 🤦♀️. I love Chanel and Hermes, but YSL bags are definitely not my thing!
I like the Ysl camera bag but I already have they Gucci one that’s very similar. I wish I saw the Ysl one first since the interior is leather lined (didn’t know that, that’s a nice bonus). The Gucci one is only cloth lined. 🥲 but I think the chain will drive me nuts.
Aw, I didn't know the Gucci is cloth lined. But I think if you prefer the Gucci strap, it's probably a better bag for you anyway. I can see the strap driving a lot of people nuts 😂
Getting into YSL and so happy you did this review. Going to binge on some of your videos on reviews for this and see if I will like it as well.
I love the Mini Lou, I’m so glad I got it! I was skeptical about being able to fit anything in it, but it holds exactly what I need, with a little bit of extra space for a few more goodies. For me, my one gripe is the fact that the tassel is not detachable.
I'm so glad you're happy with yours!! 💚💚💚
This video def helped me finalize my decision to purchase this bag with the various demos on what fits def so valuable! ❤
I'm so happy to have been helpful! Thank you for watching ☺️

I hope you’re well. YSL makes the prettiest beige. 💛
I'm doing much better! And I agree, I love this color ☺️
@@classicswithaquirk May your recovery continue on the same trajectory as price increased, only on the up!! I wish you well and enjoy your channel.💖
Hahaha, thank you! 😂
Love the model shots the bag looks great on you.
Thank you so much!

Happy birthday!! What colors do you have? 👀
Does the medium have the chain strap?
The medium has a leather strap 🙂
Best review ever! Thanks! ☺️
Thank you!!
Super good review!! I'm glad it's a great handbag!! I keep having flashbacks of your wristlet. Enjoy!!☺☺☺☺☺☺👍👍
Thank you! 😂😂😂 The wristlet was quite the endeavor!
Awesome review, thank you! Got my daughter one in pistachio…beautiful bag!
Oh awesome! I hope she loves it!
great bag I have got it in black with the silver hardware bought it 2 years ago when it was much cheaper than now
I'm glad you got yours when you did!
Can you do an update on this bag if you still love it?
Congratulations, I am happy you love it.
I love my mini Lou camera bag, lots of praises when I’m wearing it ❤
Hey, I heard from my SA that Celine prices are going up on May 20th! Just thought you should know since you cover price increases
Thank you so much for letting me know!
I was close to get this 4 years ago I wish I bought it then. It's so 😍 pretty
Thank you for watching ☺️

Thanks for your review! I always wondered if I should ever get it. My main hiccup is getting in and out of the bag. I already have a tight opening with my Speedy 25.
I actually don't find this opening too tight! The zipper comes down a little on each side, so I find it fairly easy to get into
It does seem like a good bag overall, but a few other cons for me would be that the chain strap is neither removable nor adjustable. And the non-swivel aspect would bug me! Also, if you're short, it might hang too low, especially as a shoulder bag.
I’m 5 feet 1 and it’s perfect
I didn't even consider the strap not being adjustable or removable 😅 definitely something I'll keep in mind for future reviews.
I don't think it is worth the new price tag. I think the strap should be adjustable and removable for the new price tag. This bag used to be 1,000 and now it is 1450 ish I think.
You have a point

@@jbbb7418 Louis vuitton and chanel did the same thing which caused me to not even think about buying a purse that went up 600-800$

Owned about 6 and never smelled chemical. That’s unheard of.
Thank you for watching! I didn't find that mine had any particular chemical smell.
I’m debating about this bag. I barely wear jeans, more leggings so would I have to worry about any color transfer still?
If the leggings have been washed, I don't think so. I've worn my bag a ton with leggings
@@classicswithaquirk thanks 😊
Love ❤️

Will keep going up. Buy preowned if possible. Most are in new condition.
It is more $1450 yes 😬 I think it's a great bag and I might really consider it at the current price, but preloved is a great option too. I ended up paying what I did though a very ridiculous bunch of circumstances 😅 including a credit, a discount off, and Cashback on the card I used to pay.
Why not state the measurements and weight ? Very important to me.
nice bag

Different strokes for different folks! I'm glad you got it at a lower price, since it didn't end up working for you.
